How-To Fix Power Steering Leak- saginaw Pitman-arm Shaft Seal Replacement. Part 3/4



How to replace the oil seal for the saginaw steering gearbox Pitman-arm shaft. Here we dis-assemble the gearbox to investigate what cause the oil seal to fail. We found the tension spring behind the rubber lip seal to be corroded and nearly broken. We were able to locate a new non-brand name oil seal with a different sealing lip profile, but the new seal became damage while installing into the saginaw casting. We reuse the old seal by replacing its tension spring from the new oil seal. We also lost a few video clips from this recording but we feel the video achieve its purpose of how to replace the oil seal for the saginaw steering gearbox.

The model 800(Nissan D600) incorporates a recirculating ball system in which steel balls act as a rolling thead between a steering worm-shaft and the rack-piston. Whenever a part which forms a sealing surface for an “o” ring is removed , the “o” ring seal should also be removed and replaced with a new seal. Whenever one of the pitman shaft or stub shaft seals are removed all adjacent seals should be removed and replaced with new seals. Lubricate all new seals with power steering fluid to ease assembly.

CAUTION. USE THE PROPER TOOL TO SEPARATE ALL TIE ROD AND BALL JOINTS.
